Troubleshooting

Device will not turn on or is unresponsive.

Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the device and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the battery is completely drained, it may take a few minutes of charging before the device responds. Perform a force restart by holding the power button for 15-30 seconds.

Wi-Fi connection is slow or drops frequently.

Check your router and modem. Ensure you are within range of your Wi-Fi 6E access point. Go to `Settings` > `Network & internet` > `Wi-Fi` and try turning Wi-Fi off and on. Update your Wi-Fi drivers via `Device Manager` or Surface updates.

Screen rotation or mode switching isn't working.

Ensure the display is clean and free of obstructions. Check `Settings` > `Display` for any rotation lock settings. Restarting the device can often resolve temporary sensor glitches. Ensure all Surface drivers and firmware are up to date.

Poor performance or applications are lagging.

Close unnecessary background applications. Check `Task Manager` (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) to identify resource-intensive processes. Ensure your NVIDIA graphics drivers are up to date. Verify that the device's vents are not blocked and that it's not overheating.

Windows Hello face recognition isn't working.

Ensure the camera lens is clean and there's adequate lighting. Try removing your existing Windows Hello setup and re-enrolling your face in `Settings` > `Accounts` > `Sign-in options`. Avoid wearing accessories that obscure your face during recognition.
